Confused [SOLVED] Help!!! Laptop is messed up!!

Okay so I have an Hp Compaq Presario V2000 and my warranty is over. When ever i turn on my laptop, it will give me the compaq sign and these options:
EsC to change boot order
F10 to enter setup
F12 to boot from LAN

I can change the boot order, and enter setup, but i cannot boot from Local area network (LAN). Plus i dont have a wireless internet card, but i have a linsys network adapter.
But if I dont choose any of these options, it skips to the next screen which says exactly this:

Intel UNDI, PXE-2.0 (build 082)
Copyright (C) 1997-2000 Intel Corporation

For Realtek RTL8139 (X)/8130/810X PCI Fast Ethernet Controller v2.13 (020326)
PXE-e61: Media test failure, check cable
PXE-m0f: Exiting PXE ROM
!!! Im going a bit crazy!

I got a new hardrive and it still does that. I have a cd of windows xp professional but it does not seem to let me install it.
please help me.
my battery pack and power are fine and dandy.
i have looked online and have found many more laptops which have the same problem, but only one that is my model type. PLEASE HELP!
i dont wish to buy a new laptop.
